My postcards to the edge

Only one from me (SC)

Dear students,

Just because I told one student that I'd look at her term/research paper to see if she had the right concept doesn't mean I want to proofread 50 papers over the couple of days. Unlike you guys, I'm not 18-years old anymore, I can't get 5 hours of sleep per night (though I really try) and survive on it, I can't eat plastic anymore (chili after 9 PM is a bad idea for a plethora of reasons), and I don't have unlimited blocks of time anymore. Take some of the Clearasil money and go buy a word processing program that actually has Grammatik or Spell Check on it.

Signed,
Your bloodshot-eyed professor.
